I especially loved the part where Harry's talking about Justin, and how well the manipulative/controlling relationship comes through without Harry even realizing it. Well done!
I am coming to the strong realization that this is going to be a lot, um, darker than the movie it was inspired by. Because of these poor boys didn't have problems far, far worse than parents who disapprove of their sexual orientation, they wouldn't be our Harry and John, would they. And, you know, there's just not going to be an epilogue with Justin joining PFLAG.
And so it should be. Darker, I mean. It will be also closer to the reality of people with sexual orientation issues in so many countries... Really, sometimes fluffy fics with perfect 'happy ends'for all characters involved annoy me so much, as bad examples of escapism that make me doubt in the idea of escapism (which generally I love... ).
